photo to change the look – all it
takes is 3 steps to truly personalize
your computer..

Expandable

The KPC is optimized for simple day-to-day use, but it is not just limited to that. The USB ports and extensive list of industry standard ports allow for effortless expansion. Sync your mobile phone, play songs from your MP3 player, and even add Bluetooth. If your needs ever change, It is possible to pop in more memory (up to 2GB) or add another hard drive (up to 1.5TB).

Green

KPC comes with a host of green features inside and out. The power efficient design saves energy (and money, too). At less than 55W in full use and just 33W in idle, that’s about 30W saved when compared to a typical computer. That’s because most computers are not optimized to be energy efficient. The compact cube design requires fewer materials to build, so even the form
factor is gentler on the environment.
